This is a research study about understanding how stress affects our brains and bodies. Specifically, we want to know how stress changes how the brain and immune system work together. Participants in this study are taking a medication called minocycline to help decrease the immune system to see if that changes how brains respond to positive and negative information.
At each visit, you will meet with a member of the study team and fill out questionnaires. The study also involves a willingness to take the study medication regularly for 5 days at a time and a finger prick.
